I NOT TIRED MOM!

Most days Olivia is very good about taking an afternoon nap but there are days every once in a while when she says she isn't tired and wants to skip her nap. Sometimes on the weekends we are busy or gone somewhere and she doesn't have a choice but to miss a nap and she does pretty well.
Since she is going to be 4 in a month I start to think maybe she is old enough now to not take naps anymore so I let her talk me into skipping it.
But then this happens.... on this day she and her sister started watching a movie late in the afternoon. I thought it was pretty quiet in the living room and when I came in to check I found both, the almost 4 and the 14 year old, out cold. Afraid she would have a very sore neck and wrist I laid her down flat. She never woke up and I let her sleep only to have a monster to wake up at dinner time.

Needless to say I learned my lesson again and we do still need an afternoon nap no matter what she tries to tell me.....
